For anyone wondering, I believe the reason why there are so many paths is because of “animal tracks”, a feature unique to city folk and new leaf, but worse in city folk. Every time the player walks over a patch of grass, it will deteriorate until it becomes dirt. The idea was that players would create paths following their daily routes, but for people who play the game a lot, it can lead barren patches of dirt. Let me know if I made a mistake here. I don’t have much experience with city folk.
I cannot explain to you how appreciative i am that you still make these. I hate missing these games and knowing that other people still enjoy it heals my heart a little.
city folk was my first animal crossing, so it holds so much nostalgia for me. i love the simplicity of the game, it really feels like animal crossing at its core: making friends with the neighbours, planting trees, breeding flowers, catching bugs and fish... i really love it. and the music! its all so great. thanks for this, Jeff!
It's really interesting to get a chance to sit down and see all the variety in NPC interactions NH lacks, but also the anachronistic mechanics and features that the newer games clean up and make more manageable. Thanks for another great video, Jeff!
You're not alone...I don't like requests for specific things either. And when I do eventually find the thing they want, they tell me to forget about it, because I took too long to complete the request. To make matters worse, they have to walk off angry or sad. Why can't they understand that these requests are almost impossible? I remember when I only just got lucky to find a T. rex skull that Merry the cat asked for.
Game: Please choose a time that is less than 12 hours from now to visit Queenie. Jeff: *selects 3:53pm, 30 minutes after now* Queenie: Hmmm...that's too early for me. Jeff: But the game said I could choose any time that's less than 12 hours from now!
So much nostalgia to playing this game as a kid! It's unfortunate I don't have my copy of the game any longer, but even just hearing the animals speaking in this and how villagers would go straight into dialogue remind me of the Iwata Asks interviews where the developers discussed changes they put into it. It's an incredible game, and it's great to watch a full session in it!
You should've opened the present Jambette wanted to give to Queenie and then sell it at Nook'n'Go. I did that once with Patty and she started bawling like a baby!
I love City Folk so much, it's been a shame I've had a harder time getting into it just because it's one of the last AC games I bought. The way it feels is so nice, I really hope at some point I can get myself into it a bit more!
I notice that town doesn't have the final Nook store upgrade (IIRC you can change it on occasion though when Nook does his "sigh" animation) - but for all those lamenting that they can't get the upgrade with the official servers being down, it IS possible to get it using a second Wii / WiiU and any model of DS (including 2DS and 3DS) - just load up City Folk on the other Wii system and choose "DS Briefcase" when speaking to the guards at the town gate. Now select "Download Play" on you DS and you'll be able to use the DS system to temporarily move a character over to another town for a single visit. Just boot up City Folk on the system you want to unlock Nookingtons on and choose "DS Briefcase" when starting up and follow the instructions. Just use that character as normal, and buy a single item out of the Nook's store, then send them back to their original town.
I’ve actually returned to playing City Folk, I started a town called MushTown which is a town I am using in all 5 animal crossing games, I do plan on making a video showcasing all the MushTowns
I wish i could be keeping track of my animal crossing villagesoke you. honestly you've made me want to play wild world and cityfolk again. Since i never owned the game cube until later. When i did get it.
God Damn, you must've had the patience to put down the entire walkway blocks on each and every part of the grass. While I don't play City Folk as much as I use to, much like the gamecube game, I only go back to it once in a while, or if I'm bored.
Has the game always been so fast paced? Because damn I feel like even just the walking speed is much faster than in New Leaf. Maybe just my imagination though
I want to get this game and I don’t know whether or not I should get a Wii to play it or a Wii U, I know it works on both but is there anything extra you have to do for the Wii U or is it basically the same except you need a Wii controller? Please tell me what I should choose maybe give me a pros and cons of both or something (sorry about this long message)
Yeah you'd need a Wii controller still, but it's otherwise the same. You do have to go to the Wii menu first though, you can't load Wii games directly from the Wii U menu. But that just takes like five extra seconds. Advantage to Wii U: Uses HDMI cable for better picture quality (vs. composite/component on Wii) Adventage to Wii: You'll be able to find a Wii for much cheaper than a Wii U.
Oh no, Harry lives also in your town? He is why I currently don't play. 😅 I like Gabi though. One of my starters in NL. How old is this town? The store is not upgraded, the houses tiny but you have so many golden roses. 😮
But if you don't play, Harry won't have a chance to move out. 😛 This town is from the game's launch (November 2008). I've reverted the shop to Nook 'n' Go because it has better hours (open until 1 a.m.). The tiny house you see at 11:03 is an empty house; mine has been fully expanded for many years.
@@jvgsjeff true 😅 right, I read about the opening hours. Makes sense. ☺️ Oh cool, my town is almost as old as yours (christmas 2008). I upgraded all the houses fully february last year to design more. But players can decide themselves what they want. That's nice about Animal Crossing.
How does it work for a villager like Gabi who once lived in a town to move back in? do you have to cycle through a bunch of new villagers or is it purely random?
Not entirely sure, but I think there must be a cycle of some sort. Because when former villagers have returned, it's always been at least 4-5 years later (and usually much longer than that).
City Folk lets you revert to Nook 'n' Go or Nookway if you prefer, and I opted for Nook 'n' Go because it has later hours (open until 1 a.m.). Since I often play at night, that works out better for me.
In this game, Tom Nook gives you the option to revert to a previous store. I choose Nook 'n' Go because it has the best hours (open until 1 a.m.), and I often play at night. That's more important to me than a larger selection of shop items at this point.
If you've played with someone who hacks (or someone who played with someone who has hacked), the HDLC items can show up at your Able Sisters. I have never hacked.
The vibes of City Folk are unmatched tbh, it's always been the most relaxing Animal Crossing game to watch or play for me.
This video is encouraging me to play city folk again and not to stop
im already doing so

Hi Matt 👋
For anyone wondering, I believe the reason why there are so many paths is because of “animal tracks”, a feature unique to city folk and new leaf, but worse in city folk.

Me too
I play everyday and I put in so many hours. It’s a spectacularly addicting game.
I wish I could play it but I’m away at college ☹️
it pleases my heart to see how well you've maintained forest in every game after all these years :)
Love how you made yourself little paths to discourage grass deterioration. The dedication.
city folk was my first animal crossing, so it holds so much nostalgia for me. i love the simplicity of the game, it really feels like animal crossing at its core: making friends with the neighbours, planting trees, breeding flowers, catching bugs and fish... i really love it. and the music! its all so great. thanks for this, Jeff!
i feel the same way- city folk was my first too!! i still keep up with my NL town every day, but it will never be as nostalgic to me as CF!!
It's really interesting to get a chance to sit down and see all the variety in NPC interactions NH lacks, but also the anachronistic mechanics and features that the newer games clean up and make more manageable. Thanks for another great video, Jeff!
You not disturbing the ladybug on the golden rose at around 6:30 made me smile so much, so glad someone else does this too :)
Please do more videos like this one!! I love watching your gameplay!
Your channel is so cozy, I love it!! 🍃❤️
This is exactly what I needed!! I always want the clip videos to last longer
The best hourly music is playing too, nice!
I'm getting flashbacks to your A Day in Forest from your Gamecube town back in 2006. Man I feel old. 😢

started playing city folk again it's one of my faves!!
I was just thinking the other day I wanted to see what a typical gameplay vid would look like from you! This is awesome :)
This game is for me the best in the series. Still gives me chills. I'm glad you're still playing it too lol
LOL not queenie getting offended after you praised her room 😭😭😔🤚🏽 hahahahaha

I love how you take care of the roses ♥️
this is great! brings back memories of your old vids. i would love a version of this but in the gamecube game and wild world

Stitches is so cute
This video makes me want to get City Folk
12:06 had no idea that there were actually home visits in this game.
Back To City Folk ⚽️
Gabi has freckles! New best villager.
A great video to have in the background while you built in the sims 2 !
you played on my birthday! :D
moose is one of my favourites i cant lie
13:35 I didn't know that could happen. 🤔
you should do more of these!
I love this game
Queenie either really likes bowling or really hates her hamster T^T
Awehhh you have my favorite friend Antonio!!
Love this and would watch more!
God city folk was my childhood
God Damn, you must've had the patience to put down the entire walkway blocks on each and every part of the grass. While I don't play City Folk as much as I use to, much like the gamecube game, I only go back to it once in a while, or if I'm bored.
Do you think you could do more videos like this one? Watching you play is just so relaxing!
Queenie was so offended for what😭😭
I wish the sheep still looked fluffy in the new game
I love you never change ❤️
She was one of my starters 12:02
Has the game always been so fast paced? Because damn I feel like even just the walking speed is much faster than in New Leaf. Maybe just my imagination though
it's the way it scrolls when you move that makes it feel like that
City Folk runs at twice the framerate New Leaf does, so naturally the movement should come across as faster.
좋은 영상이네요👍
LOLLL NOO THE PIT FALLLLLL HAHAHAHA OH NO HAHA
Edit: Omg the stash im dead hahaha
The grass wear on CF was so awful, I remember having to walk everywhere so scared of losing my grass
Why im the only one think welcome to the city is not the worst one and have is little charm i should give it at shot so bad
Funny because City Folk is literally my fav on the series...It's almost perfect, my only complaint is the grass deterioration, that shit is annoying
Nice
damn what did Jambette do to you????? lol

Can you do the same with the other games (preferably New Leaf and New Horizons because it's the only Animal Crossing games that I own) ?

Is there a patch to allow the screenshots feature to work with SD cards bigger than 2GB?

Yo Jeff how'd you get that HDLC item, did you ever hack or how did you obtain it?
If you've played with someone who hacks (or someone who played with someone who has hacked), the HDLC items can show up at your Able Sisters. I have never hacked.
Did your Wii ever crash mid gameplay?
Not that I can recall. There have been times when I lost power mid-game though, so I still had to deal with Resetti.
Thanks
You use a Wii right?
I mean...he is playing on a Wii in the video
@@morayfrye Some people pirate it...
I actually play it on Wii U, thanks to its backward compatibility. But yeah, the game is on a physical Wii disc.
@@jvgsjeff The Wii U was such a good Console...
Edit: Then yes, because a Wii U is the Wii sequel.
